Measurement Of Residual Phase Noise And Longitudinal-Mode Linewidth In A Hybridly Mode-Locked External Linear Cavity Semiconductor Laser

Abstract

We report measurements of the residual phase-noise knee position and longitudinal-mode linewidth of a hybridly mode-locked external linear cavity semiconductor laser as a function of laser cavity length. Excellent agreement between these measurements suggests a direct relationship between rms pulse-to-pulse timing jitter and average longitudinal-mode linewidth. This relationship leads to a fundamental limit in the timing jitter of mode-locked lasers. © 2002 Optical Society of America.
